Alison Sudol - Still Come the Night lyrics
[Alison Sudol - Still Come the Night lyrics]
I knew you were gone before any other
Silent you slipped out the door
I knew in my bones
It would be wrong to stop you
I couldn't keep you anymore
You were a surprise unlike any other
A gift from the stars and the moon
I fell to my knees again and again
Overcome overwhelmed over you
I breathed I breathed i opened up my hands
I tried my best to soften to the fear
Oh please, oh pleasе, no
Sparrow at the window
Still come the night you lеft us here
Grief is a hawk flying over in circles
Keeping her eyes on the ground
Swift as an arrow she's pinned to my breast
She rises, I am empty now
So breathe, oh breathe
Just open up your hands
There's nothing left to hold now but the air
In dreamless sleep oh sparrow at the window
Still come the night come find me there
Silent you slipped out the door
I knew in my bones
It would be wrong to stop you
I couldn't keep you anymore
You were a surprise unlike any other
A gift from the stars and the moon
I fell to my knees again and again
Overcome overwhelmed over you
I breathed I breathed i opened up my hands
I tried my best to soften to the fear
Oh please, oh pleasе, no
Sparrow at the window
Still come the night you lеft us here
Grief is a hawk flying over in circles
Keeping her eyes on the ground
Swift as an arrow she's pinned to my breast
She rises, I am empty now
So breathe, oh breathe
Just open up your hands
There's nothing left to hold now but the air
In dreamless sleep oh sparrow at the window
Still come the night come find me there
